I guess I should clarify that I didn't come up with the list myself. It was something that was forwarded to me several years ago that I thought was pretty appropriate to this situation. But you are right that in a lot of ways I wasn't happy with the job and it was time for a change anyway. So far from the contacts I have made it seems like there are much better opportunities out there. Thanks for the well wishes! Thanks Kevin!

I too am a CPA and was "laid off" from my first job in public accounting about 5 years ago...although not by a Big 4 firm. Turns out it was the best thing that could have happened to me. I found another great firm to work for and I will be partner here in a couple years. It sounds like you were miserable anyway (talk of being embarrassed of what you do) so this will probably work out for you too. Good luck! Hang in there, bud.
